Since the 1970s, various sociological approaches have tried to
understand and conceptualize "the global," yet few of them have
systematically addressed the full spectrum of social relationships.
Prominent exponents of the global approach - such as world systems
analysis - instead have focused on particular domains such as
politics or the economy. Under the label of "world society,"
however, some authors have suggested alternatives to the
predominant equivocation of society and the nation-state. The
contributions to this volume share that objective and take their
point of departure from the two most ambitious projects of a theory
of world society: world polity research and systems theory, mapping
out the common ground and assessing their potential to inform
empirical analyses of globalization.
